The Gospel writers were very clear that Joseph and Mary were very obedient to the law. Other than being obedient to the instructions given by the angel many times, the Gospels mentioned that they kept the law of Moses in their espousal and pregnancy, in traveling to Bethlehem, in the circumcision at 8 days, in the offering after Mary's days of purification, and in traveling to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover.
Mary and Joseph must have been a great parents to the Lord who was perfect in His obedience to the Father in all things. Luke 22:42 - "Not my will, but thine, be done."
